Connor Jones Fantasy Stats

Seattle Mariners minor league pitching prospect Connor Jones continues to post solid numbers in Double-A. A second-round draft selection of the Cardinals back in 2016, Jones was released this past April after a tough year at Triple-A. He signed with the Mariners organization in no time and has since demonstrated strong outings on the mound. This past week, on May 19, the hurler struck out eight batters over eight scoreless innings. Although he gave up three hits and one walk while plunking two batters, his ability to keep the scoreboard empty and earn the win was commendable. Moving forward, Jones's biggest obstacle will be his age. 27 years old and playing on his second team, Jones is still treading on thin ice. If he has a bad outing, Seattle will be far less forgiving with him than one of its other younger, flashier options.
